With a little planning, this addictive treat can be easily thrown together at the last minute. Infuse the honey up to 24 hours in advance and arrange the blue cheese on crackers several hours ahead of time. Then, just before serving, drizzle with honey and sprinkle with scallions.

Blue cheese can be tricky to cut into slices. Freezing will make it firmer and much easier to slice.

Preparation

In heavy small saucepan over low heat, stir together honey, rosemary, and salt. Continue heating, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 10 minutes. Strain through fine-mesh sieve into small bowl, discarding rosemary. Cool slightly, about 3 minutes. (Honey can be infused ahead and stored in airtight container at room temperature up to 24 hours.)

Cut blue cheese into 40 slices and arrange on crackers. Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with scallions, and serve
